That Strange Disappearance.

SAN Francisco, June pa woman
known as Anna J. Butterfield, who has
latterly been working in bakery at
Riverside, Gala, has been identified as
one of the persons who apparently had
some knowledge or connection with the
alleged abduction of Mrs. Albert Brooks,
of Juniata, Mich, who recently came
into the possession of large fortune at
Denver, Colo, and then mysteriously
disappeared. The Butterfield woman
was identified as the person who sent
both of the letters to the banker at
Vassar, Mich. The letters in question
had been written by parties in River
side to Mrs. Brooks at Denver. It was
also learned that the Butterfeld woman
had received copy of the Detroit Free
Press, of June 18th. noting the receipt
Of letters at Vassar. When some. in
quiries began to be made about her,
she disappeared, departing last Sunday.
She was reputed to be worth $40 600.
Parties who were investigating the
matter declare that the woman is either
one of the abductors or is the lost Mrs.
Brooks herself and that the receipt OF q
large legacy upset her mind. A good
photograph was secured of the woman,
which will be sent east. She is ap-
parently 40 to 40 years of age, OF stout
build and having plain features.

The Fidelity Bank Failure

CINCINNATI, June 22.-It is stated
that Bank Examiner Powell, Ion Mon
day afternoon, demanded a statement
from the Fidelity National Bank, and re-
ceived one showing balance on hand
of 81, 160, 900 cash. When he called for
a view of this money he was amazed by
being shown lead pencil memorandum
reading: Wiltshire. Eckerk Il Co.,
$500, 900, etc. through along list. There
was no collateral, no security what
ever, and the officers were unable to
make any explanation. VIce-Presi-
dent Harper concealed from the
directors his connection with the
wheat deal. It is said he admitted
yesterday that he did not go into
wheat himself, but he bonored an over
draft for Wiltshire for $4,000, and
then put in the rest to save that. He
charges the whole break to the action
of the Chicago board of trade making
all wheat regular. Previous to the ex-
posure Harper stated repeatedly that
he did not know who was in the wheat
deal and that he did not believe it was
managed at all in Cincinnati, but con-
Quoted from California and Cleveland.
AS the examination of the Fidelity
deficit increases. 1t is now common
talk that the liabilities will reach the
stupendous sum OF $4,000 Zoo, while the
assets dwindle in proportion. 1t seems
a foregone conclusion that the deposI-
tors will get next to nothing, This is
the general talk, but is unofficial, and
cannot be verified until the bank ex
aminer makes his report. 1t is stated
to-day, that the memorandum, which
is a substitute for collaterals, shows
that Wiltshire used 81, 100000 of the
banks money and collaterals for other
loans were Hypothetical in New York
and elsewhere. The belief of some is
that Wiltshire acted as agent for Harper
in conducting the wheat deal and was
not really a borrower. There is talk
of more arrests.
Another sensational development oc-
Cured this af ernoon. Bank Examiner
Frowl made new discoveries, under
which he caused the rearrest of Harper,
Baldwin and Hopkins, on the charge of
conspiracy to commit an offence against
the law of the United States "by unlaw-
fully and wilfully Incorporating the
funds and credits of banking institu-
ton, in pursuance of which purpose
they issued certain drafts in favor of
Wiltshire, Eckert & Co." Another af-
fdavit charges them with transmitting
to the Comptroller OF Currency false
and fraudulent report of the banks at
fairs. Harper gave bonds of 5000 and
two other for 81 900 each on the charges.
Hopkins and Baldwin appear greatly
detected, but Harper is apparently un l
concerned,

The Rowan County Row.

LOUISVILLE, KY, June pa rumor
has reached here that Craig Tolliver, the
noted desperate. and his two brothers,
were killed at Moorehead this morning
in general fight between the factions.
1t is thought the fighting is still in pro-
gress. Tolliyer was notified recently by
friends of the two Logan boys lately
killed, that he must leave the country
or take the consequences of his deeds.
The killing of Tolliver is confirmed.
This morning band of regulators, led
by DR.. Logan, father of the two boys,
opened ire on Toiliver and some of his
gang who were in the streets of Moor
head. Tolliver was killed early in the
engagement, and the fight assumed q
bushwhacking character, the men
hiding behind houses and trees. Re-
ports differ as to the number of killed
one placing the number at 5; another
stated that Craig Tolliver. his two
brothers and thirteen men were killed.

to pull down the figures of the Lion and

SULLIVAN INTERVIEWED.
He Tells What He Intends to Do
on His European Trip.

Boston Globe.
Yesterday it was whispered in pugil-
istic circles that John L. Sullivan, the
champion pugilist of the world, was
about to depart for Europe. A Globe
reporter called on the champion, who
was found at Hogarty'S barber shop on
Dover street. AS the reporter entered
the barber was putting the finishing
touches on the beautiful growth of
black hair that John is fortunate
enough to possess.
The big fellow slid out of the chair
and confronted the reporter, and asked
what he could do for him.
When told that there is a report
abroad that Peter Duryea, of New York,
is to be his baeker, he said: II have
corresponded with MI. Duryea, but no
satisfactory understanding has been az
rived at. L have become tired of re-
naming at home and seeing second
class men go to Europe and pose as
champions. And before they get prop
erly settled l will be after them and
show the people of Great Britain who
the real champion is. Thepublic prob
ably thinks because my late manager,
Pat Sheedy, has gone abroad I cannot
find new backer. Nevertheless have
United States either. The gentleman
to whom [ refer is Harry Phillips, of
Toronto, who backed Harry Gilmore in
his fight with Jack McAuliffe.
''Mr. Phillips is thorough gentle
man, and there is not the slightest
doubt but our trip will be a successful
one and will prove to be a bonanza to
us, as on my arrival in England [ will
give ten or twelve exhibitions, and will
do my utmost to bring about an exhibit
tlon between Jem Smith and myself. Ii
the plan fails will challenge the winner
OF the Smith-Kilrain match for $1,000 a
side, and endeavor to come back to the
Hub victor.
ut was very funny to hear the idle
prattle of Charley Mitchell while he re-
manned in Boston. Why, | have re-
peatedly given him chance to have a
go both in public and in private, but
the usual answer from Mitchell was:
There is no blooming dust in it, john )
L have travelled throughout the entire
American continent and have met dozens
OF men like Mitchell, who were ready
to rlsk their lives for the sake of max
ing few thousand dollars. Such men
only meet me once in their lives. But

CLOVIS CONTESTS.
The Duluth PugilisJ Speaks of
His Matches With Nolan and

O1ottf.
John P. Glow, the Duluth heavy
weight pugilist, arrived in Minneapolis
last evening en- route for Cincinnati,
where he will meet Nolan in a six
round contest Oct 6, at Chester Park.
When interviewed Glow said: 81 ex-
pect to win, but do not underrate Nolan,
who is big, strong young fellow,
weighing 100 pounds in condition, and
has the reputation of being both Scien-
tific and hard hitter. Kilrain was
matched to fight him but pulled out
under some preteXt and turned the
match over to Mitchell, who declined to
take it mp. then sent ON a challenge
for fifteen-round contest, small gloves,
for IS and % per cent. of receipts, with
a side bet of 81 900 added, which Nolan's
hackers refused to entertain, but said
ten-round contest might be brought off,
and when signified mywillingneSs to go
him ten rounds they cut it down to six
rounds, ,andrather than lose the chance of
meeting him at all, accented but could
not, after repeated kilograms, find out
on what basis he wished to fight, and
had to finally send on the articles of
agreement for them to fill in the terms,
and when they returned they read 90
and 40 per cent. of receipts. Nolan, in
Cne meantime, before The articles were
returned, telegraphed all over the cOun-
try that if l staid the six rounds l
would receive the entire receipts. l
would have considered this find, as /
do not think the man lives that could
knock me out in six rounds, although L
only weigh 165 pounds in condition.
Any man going to another mans town
always has the worst of it. especially if
he is total stranger, but if they do not
put big pillows onto me will guarantee
that n olan will know he has been to a
fight. A match has been arranged be-
tween Glover, of Chicago, and myself,
fifteen rounds, for rs and % per cent,
to take place Nov. l at either ST. Paul,
Milwaukee or Minneapolis, and if l
survive both of these matches will
give the balance OF the fighters who
have made so much newspaper noise a
chance to show what they are made of.
Six rounds is not my forte, but my
backer will arrange fifteen-round con-
test for rs and 25 per cent. of the re-
ceiptS with any man, barring Sullivan,
i'll America, with all the money on the
side they wish to put up. L leave to-
morrow morning with my backer for
Cincinnati. John Donaldson was to
have accompanied us, but was detained
by too much business at hOme."

NATIONAL LEAGUE.
Chicago and Philadelphia Still
Fighting for Second Place.

The National league teams have just
another week of their season. Each
club has four regular games to play, but
probably, if the weather is good, post
pOned games will be played on the ex-
ira days. The championship is settled
in Detroit's favor by considerable ma
jority, and the only interest in the con-
test is the pretty fight between Chicago
and Philadelphia for second place.
Chicago ends the week with three
games at PittSburg and Philadelphia
with three at New York. Taking re-
cent performances into account. the
chances of Philadelphia are about as
good as those of Chicago. 1t now seems
likely that no one of the eight clubs
will complete the 126 games of the regu-
lar schedule. Indianapolis has played
the largest number, 12O, and has a
chance to play all its games, as it could
play game with Chicago OH Monday
and two on Tuesday, and those with
Detroit on Wednesday, Thursday and
Saturday. 1t is probable, however, that
rain will interfere with one or more of
these games. The clubs will play their
last games on Saturday, as follows:
Boston at Washington, Philadelphia at
New York, Chicago at Pittsburg,
and Detroit at Indianapolis. The
record follows.

I'd Dempsey never pretended to be

anu dempsey never pretended to be
aDle TO lick me. Dempsey's money was
ready Tor months to make match with
Mitchell, but he always found an excuse
in backing out.
Mitchell would not fight man who
was his equal, but always wanted to
hght the man on top, whom claim was
myself. By so doing he had nothing to
lose, but, on the other hand, had lots
TO gain by defeating me-"
truly John presented the appearance
of being in first-class condition as he
stepped out of the barber shop.
AS the champion and writer walked
up the street John said: lyon are un-
doubtedly aware that Ed Holske is to
accompany me abroad, and also my
faithful friend, Jim McKeone, who was
with me on my Western tour. My OBJ
Ject in going to England is to show the
people there who the real cham
pion is, and if l continue in as good
spirits as am at the present moment
there will be very little doubt about the
matter. | don't blame Mitchell for tax
ing Kilrain to the old country, but | do
blame him for representing him as being
the best man on this side of the water.
You can take my tip" said Sullivan,
''that Smith will have very soft thing
with Kilrain, and Mitchell is perfectly
aware of the fact. Kilrain may be a
good man.. but he has not got the
heart to punish a man when he has
got the chance. Sympathy is all right
after battle, but true fighter knows
nothing of the kind when he is engaged.
The entire population of Boston and
vicinity have got an idea that / am a
light of the past. but l will return to
this country within one year with the
undisputed title of champion of the
world, or die in the attempt: l shall
sail from Boston. Boston is the place
of my birth, and from that port intend
to start on my European tour. 1 ask
nothing of my Boston friends, but l un-
derStand that on my arrival in New
York | am to be rendered rousing tes-
timonial prior to my departure for the
other side"
1t has been said by the many people
that have seen the champion of late that
he was very corpulent and ungainly,
but if appearances go for anything John
L. will be able to get in condition
in three weeks to meet any man in
the world in fight for his life.u

Speculation Upon the North
Western League Pen
nant.
The Aggregation From Osh-
kosh Most Likely to Prove
a Winner.
A Fight for Second Place Be-
tw e3n Chicago and Phila-
delphia in the National.
Cincinnati Having Fun Drub-
bing the Champion Amer
lean Association Team.

The Northwestern league teams will
probably continue to play for the next
two weeks. although the last regular
games will be contested week from
tomorrow. Manager Barnes viii try
hard to play all the games in which st.
Paul is interested, all of which are
scheduled for the st. Paul grounds. Six
of them, those with Oshkosh and La
Crosse, are regular scheduled games,
and the other four, those with Milwau-
kee, DeS Moines and Duluth, are post
poned. Oshkosh has more games to
play than any other team, fifteen, which
must be played in thirteen days, if at
all. Probably at least five of these will
never be played. The fight for the
pennant is not yet over, all OF the tour
leading clubs still having some chance
to win it. Oshkosh, however, has
considerable advantage over the other
three, and, if it wins two games OF the
three with st. Paul this week, will fly
the flag. Milwaukee will probably take
four or five of the six games with Du-
luth and Eau Claire. st Paul has been
doing quite as well as its best friends
expected since returning home, having
won five out of seven games with Mil
waukee and Des MOines, pulling the
former down to second place and put
ting the latter back to fourth. 1t has,
however, been unable to gain on Oshkosh.
The latter has played but four games on
its trip, winning two and tying two.
Complaint comes from Eau Claire that
both of the games Oshkosh won there
were given the visiting team by poor
umpiring. The first tie at Duluth was
also caused by weak umpiring. Duluth
had scored two runs in the tenth inning
and Umpire Power should have insisted
that the game be played out. The games
between Oshkosh and st. Paul this week
will doubtless be the most exciting of
the season. Right here the GLOBE
would like to make a suggestion. The
people of ST. Paul who attended the last
OShkOSh-St. Paul series were diSgusted
with the offensive and brutal coaching
of the Oshkosh team. Cannot Manager
Barnes make an agreement with Man.
ager Selee that there shall be no coach
ing whatever by either team? This
would please the public and probably
not affect the result of the games in the
least. Duluth. La Crosse and Eau Claire
are having Il pretty contest for the posi-
ton of rear guard. Probably Eau Claire
will retain the place, while La Crosse
and Duluth are pretty likely to exchange
noSitiOnS The record follows:
